example

[0135] A combination of dorsiflexion and eversion has been applied to experimental / test insoles 500 ( Figure 7 ), to examine the effect of combined articulation on minimizing the risk of tripping and loss of lateral balance and enhancing the stance foot load and reducing the impact transmitted to the knee. Insole effects were also examined to confirm that these ankle modifications did not cause fundamental changes in gait patterns.

[0136] Figure 7 An experimental footwear-sole 500 is shown in . The experimental / tested insole 500 was designed to support 2.2° dorsiflexion and 4.5° eversion in the static stance position provided by the inclination between the planar bottom 502 and the planar upper surface 504 of the insole 500 .

[0137] The exact dimensions of each experimental insole 500 varied according to the size of the test subject's foot. Insole 500 was sized to fit the typical shoe size of each test subject's foot. In the example of 26cm footwear - insoles ( Fig...

Abstract

A footwear-insole for modifying a user's gait configured to extend under a user's foot and provide greater than 0 to 5.0 DEG dorsiflexion support and greater than 0 to 5.0 DEG eversion support.

Description

[0001] priority cross reference [0002] This application claims priority to Australian Provisional Application No. 2014902939 filed 30 July 2014, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention generally relates to a footwear insole for modifying a user's gait. A modified gait can reduce injuries that can occur during activities such as walking. The present invention is particularly useful for reducing injuries associated with falls, acute ankle sprains, and knee osteoarthritis (which can occur due to long-term movement-related wear and tear on the joints), and will be conveniently disclosed hereinafter Invention on this exemplary application. However, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to this application and may be used in other foot orthotic applications. Background technique [0004] The following discussion of the background to the invention is intended to facilitate an underst...
